Position Overview

Reporting directly to the Director of Network Operations, the Field Telecommunications Technician 2 is a high-impact role designed for a resourceful expert who thrives at the intersection of physical infrastructure and logical networking.

In this role, you will move beyond basic support to own the deployment and stability of our enterprise network solutions. You aren’t just "making systems run"—you are performing high-level troubleshooting of Layer 2/3 environments, leading complex onsite installations (from fiber backhaul to microwave radio alignment), and ensuring that our 1–2 day "lightning-fast" install promise is met with precision. This position requires a technician who can work independently in the field, think critically under pressure, and serve as a technical mentor within the operations team.

Core Responsibilities

Advanced Network Support and Tier 2 Escalation

• Tier 2 Troubleshooting: Act as the primary escalation point for complex network outages and performance issues, resolving tickets that require deep-dive diagnostics beyond Tier 1 capabilities.
• Incident Management: Proactively monitor network health alerts and lead the response for service-affecting events to minimize downtime.
• Root-Cause Analysis: Conduct thorough post-mortem analysis on systemic issues and implement permanent corrective actions to prevent recurrence.
• On-Call Leadership: Participate in a rotating after-hours/weekend schedule, serving as the lead technical responder for emergency field repairs.

Precision Installation and Configuration

• Full-Stack Deployment: Lead the onsite and remote configuration and installation of enterprise-grade routers, switches, microwave backhaul radios, and VoIP gateways.
• RF and Wireless Engineering: Perform precision alignment of microwave links and conduct path analysis to ensure maximum throughput and stability.
• Infrastructure Excellence: Execute and oversee complex fiber and copper cabling projects, utilizing OTDR and power meters to certify performance and reliability.
• Field Logistics: Manage site-specific requirements, including ladder work, rooftop deployments, and hardware mounting, ensuring all work meets safety and aesthetic standards.

Network Integrity and Documentation

• Infrastructure Audits: Lead scheduled maintenance, firmware upgrades, and hardware audits to ensure the network remains secure and optimized.
• System Documentation: Create and maintain high-fidelity network diagrams, IP management logs, and site-specific configuration records.
• Continuous Improvement: Identify performance bottlenecks and hardware trends, providing data-driven recommendations for infrastructure scaling and upgrades.

Technical Consultation and Training

• Complex Problem Solving: Resolve high-level hardware and software conflicts via phone, email, or onsite visits, maintaining a solutions-focused approach under pressure.
• Knowledge Transfer: Mentor junior technicians and develop internal "Standard Operating Procedures" (SOPs) to streamline team workflows.
• Client Interface: Provide professional technical briefings to clients post-installation, ensuring they understand their new network environment.

Strategic Collaboration

• Cross-Functional Synergy: Partner with the Network Engineering and IT teams to implement new technologies and resolve cross-platform technical hurdles.
• Stakeholder Communication: Provide clear, concise technical updates to the Director of Network Operations and clients, translating complex issues into actionable information.

Qualifications

• Experience: 3–5 years of hands-on experience in Network Field Operations or ISP Technical Support.
• Networking Mastery: Understanding of Layer 2/3 protocols, including VLAN tagging, Subnetting, and TCP/IP troubleshooting.
• RF & Fiber: Proven experience aligning Microwave Point-to-Point radios and testing Fiber/Copper with OTDR and power meters.
• Hardware: Expertise configuring enterprise-grade routers and switches (e.g., Mikrotik, Ubiquiti, or Cisco).
• Physical Requirements: Ability to lift 75 lbs and work comfortably at heights (ladders and rooftops).
• Mobility: Valid Driver’s License and a reliable vehicle for travel to client sites.
• Credentials: BICSI Certified preferred

Education

Associate's degree in a related field or equivalent professional experience preferred.
